Growing to See: Efficient Pretraining of Self-Supervised Vision Transformers

Progressive depth growth builds large networks by starting with shallow models and inserting layers during training. Recent advances in large language models have renewed interest in this longstanding approach, demonstrating benefits for training efficiency and reasoning alongside changes in internal computations. Howe...

InfoVis: Unified Slide Image Generation and Editing

Generating and editing presentation slides requires models to combine accurate text rendering, instruction following, visual grounding, aesthetic design, and precise editing within one canvas. Existing work covers only subsets of these capabilities and lacks large-scale slide-native supervision and diagnostic evaluatio...

Relational Learning as World Modeling

Relational learning typically predicts from a database state, but decision making asks a different question: how will that state change under an action? In operational systems, the answer depends on system-specific dynamics that may not be visible in the database itself. We view each such system as a relational"world"a...

Before Attention Sinks Form: Hidden-State Geometry Reveals and Modulates Their Formation

Attention sinks are usually studied after they have formed. We ask whether a measurable hidden-state change appears beforehand and whether changing that geometry alters what happens later. To remove network depth as a shortcut, we compare prompts in the same model and at the same layer. When sink timing varies across p...

Feature-Context Consistency: Unsupervised Adversarial Detection with Drift Stability on Attributed Graphs

Adversarial detection on evolving attributed graphs faces two challenges: fraud labels arrive late or not at all, and natural distributional drift erodes any trained decision boundary. Modern detectors can reach strong detection rates when labels are available and the distribution is stationary; sustaining that quality...

Learning Incompressible 3D Flows from Sparse Samples: A Set Transformer Approach to Divergence-Free Kernel Fitting

Recovering divergence-free velocity fields from sparse and corrupted observations requires reconciling physical consistency, expressive representations, and robustness to missing data. We introduce DFK-Former, a set-to-field transformer that reconstructs divergence-free velocity fields from sparse, noisy, and irregular...

AeroChem: Closed-loop Physics-Informed State Space Modeling for Long-term Chemically-Reactive Air Quality Forecasting--Extended Version

Accurate long-term air quality forecasting is challenging due to long-range transport, meteorological variability, and nonlinear chemical reactions underlying secondary pollutant formation. Purely data-driven models often suffer from long-horizon drift and lack physical consistency, while existing physics-informed appr...

Integrating Feature Understandability into Feature Selection for Human-Centred Tabular Explanations

Existing human-centred XAI research predominantly evaluates explanations after they have been generated. However, this fails to provide actionable insights into improving accessibility. This study incorporates human-based feature understandability into feature selection to improve the generation of human-centred explan...

Towards Modality-Agnostic Seizure Classification: A Unified Deep Learning Framework for Heterogeneous EEG and Intracranial EEG Signals

A new framework of multimodal seizure classification integrating the heterogeneous EEG and iEEG recordings from different subjects and sources is presented, using the EEGNet-Vision Transformer as the feature extraction and classification network to learn the local discriminative patterns as well as global contextual in...

pi-Net: Empirical Latent Representations for Differentiable Physics Heads in Data-Scarce Systems

Developing reliable predictive models for multi-physics systems often forces a compromise between computationally demanding physical simulators and data-hungry, opaque machine learning (ML) algorithms. While incorporating dimensional analysis into directed computation graphs offers a structurally sound alternative to e...

Growing and Transferring Pathways for LLM Reinforcement Learning

Reinforcement learning (RL) can substantially improve the reasoning capabilities of large language models, but an effective training run requires considerable resources. Reusing the computation acquired through RL across models would extend the value of that training. We propose GrowRL, an RL method that organizes lear...

Q&A: How AI came to model the “messy” human mind

Assistant Professor Benjamin Lindquist studies how engineers deliberately injected randomness into early AI, giving rise to deep-learning models that sometimes hallucinate.
